SEAN HUGHES

Sean Hughes didn’t learn to play an instrument at 5, he doesn’t span from a musical family nor did he spend his teenage years dreaming of becoming an international superstar. Sean just wants to make people dance. He is a DJ in the truest sense of the word, he plays, he mixes, and he does it very, very well.

Sean’s talent with vinyl, cd’s, even a USB means he can play in any situation, be it a small underground party of deep house aficionados, to a club of thousands of main room house fans.

There are few people who can mix soul, disco, house, drum & bass and indie together and make it look and more importantly, sound cool, but you name it and Sean will work it into his set...and you will dance.

The last few years have been incredible for Sean. Highlights include a trip to the Cannes Film Festival to warm up for Justin Timberlake , Art Department and Diplo at the exclusive beachfront club ‘Torch’ and playing to 15'000+ people on Creamfields South Stage in August.

Sandwiched between this was of course his summer residency in Ibiza. After choosing to cycle – yes, on a pushbike – to Ibiza from his home in Wirral, raising thousands for charity, Sean set up camp on the White Isle as resident for one of the biggest club nights on the island, Cream Ibiza, and one of the world’s most famous sunset bars, Café Del Mar.

Over the season this allowed Sean to warm-up and close for some of the world’s finest DJs including Marco Carola , DJ Sneak , Joesph Captati , Paul Oakenfold , Paul Van Dyk , Calvin Harris and Laidback Luke to name a few. It was during one of his sets for Cream Ibiza that Sean was spotted by Jaguar Skills’ management team and subsequently asked to join Jag on his 2013 UK Winter Tour.

Other defining moments in Sean’s 24 year DJ career (yes he was one of those guys who started DJ’ing aged 10), have included playing a 3 hour warm-up set for deadmau5 to a sold out Amnesia, and being the first person to keep the doors of Café Del Mar open until 6am when his Music On pre-party set went on and on.

Although focused primarily on playing music, Sean also produces and remixes with several of his tracks being released on Berlin’s Supdub Records, Floorplay and CR2 Records.
